A favorite Korean ingredient, rice cakes (or tteok) lend their delightfully chewy texture to this crowd-pleasing dish. We’re tossing them in our spicy black bean sauce with hearty pork and crisp-tender bok choy, first sautéed in a fragrant blend including ginger, garlic, and scallions.

Fill a medium pot 3/4 of the way up with salted water; cover and heat to boiling on high. Wash and dry the bok choy. Cut off and discard the root end of the bok choy; roughly chop.
In a large pan (nonstick, if you have one), heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil on medium-high until hot. Add the pork; season with salt and pepper. Cook, stirring frequently and breaking the meat apart with a spoon, 4 to 6 minutes, or until browned. Add the sautéed aromatics. Cook, stirring frequently, 1 to 2 minutes, or until combined.
Add the chopped bok choy, black bean-chile sauce, and 2 tablespoons of water. Cook, stirring occasionally, 3 to 4 minutes, or until most of the liquid has cooked off and the pork is cooked through. Turn off the heat.
Meanwhile, add the rice cakes to the pot of boiling water. Cook 2 to 3 minutes, or until tender. Drain thoroughly.
Transfer the cooked rice cakes to the pan of cooked pork and bok choy. Add the cream. Cook on medium-high, stirring frequently, 1 to 2 minutes, or until thoroughly combined. Taste, then season with salt and pepper if desired. Enjoy!
